Hardly, since it deals with the problem of being able to enter the
required information in an easy way, not with a user requirement never
to be able to edit the command before it gets sent off.

If this stops grep-find from prompting for the arguments, it does not
give you a starting place for editing. And if it does not inhibit the
prompting, uh, we have my proposal, so you'd hardly find me objecting
to it...

Not necessarily. It could come in handy in a few cases.
